Brian. That's the same RF. Fiddle player, English, Mancunian. Emigrated to Australia circa ? . Returned circa 1980 (I think) and teamed up with several Aussie ex-pats to form the Ringers Bush Band. They used to play in a pub called the Railway, which was just off the A56 at Old Trafford on the way into central Manchester. Also active in the Irish music scene which was pretty burgeoning in those days. I think he used to live out Altrincham way and discretion dictates that I had better not disclose the details of the hair raising lift he gave me one night.
